Summary

This study compares buprenorphine to a standard opioid (hydromorphone) for pain relief in adults aged 65 and older who come to the emergency department with a broken bone. Researchers want to see if buprenorphine works just as well but causes fewer side effects like nausea, confusion, or breathing problems. About 48 participants will receive one of the two drugs and report their pain and any side effects over 48 hours.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age 65 years or older * Emergency Department patient * Diagnosis of suspected or confirmed acute fracture * Numerical Rating Scale 4 or greater at time of presentation * Must be able to give informed consent or have a surrogate decisionmaker to provide informed consent * Subjects who may require a surgical procedure are eligible for enrollment, as given the low dose of buprenorphine, this is not anticipated to affect future anesthesia. If additional pain control is needed for surgical procedure, full agonist opioid can be used without contraindication. Exclusion Criteria: * Prior history of opioid use disorder * Participants taking chronic opioid therapy (defined as opioids taken during the past month) * Allergy to study medications * Hemodynamic instability requiring immediate resuscitation * Inability to consent and absence of surrogate decisionmaker
